Radio

December 2nd, 2006

We did a series of radio interviews here in JoBurg and it was really cool to meet the DJ’s and staff at the stations. They were all really nice and even though they could claim “celebrity” status here, they all were really down to earth. One of the things about being an artist on the road is that it’s really easy to forget your schedule because everything is thrown at you really fast and your memory of all the events seem to mesh into one. Well how about every station that we went to asked about our schedule? Sucks right? I’m going to just start taking notes on our gigs.

Radio here is soooooooooooooo much better than in Atlanta. I feel confident saying Atlanta radio is the absolute worst compared to radio here. » Read more: Radio

Fruit Loops

What’s the breakfast of Champions?? Yeah, that’s it… Fruit Loops. You ask why Fruit Loops? It’s because the other food at this house just isn’t good. This Bed and Breakfast has a complimentary breakfast that’s just not good. It’s so bad that one of the band members flushed his eggs in my toilet just so that the cook wouldn’t know that he didn’t like them. I’m not a cook at all, but from what I’ve been told, you can’t really mess up breakfast food… I guess that’s not so true after all. So Fruit Loops – The breakfast of Champions, because you have to be a Champ to survive through breakfast every morning.

Anyways, today was cool. We went to a part of Jozi called Ennerdale. No workshop today, but just a show at a community civic center. They had people from the area to open up for us and it was good to see talent from the area. Only half of the people there seemed to enjoy hip hop, and that sub-set of the group had tremendous energy. They learned our songs very fast and sang with us very loudly. Thanks for the love! » Read more: Catch Up Time: 11/30/06
